Chapter 60

Unedited

In the evening, Kilahi threw her head backwards in mock horror while on a video call with Manny. Manny had just revealed how Gbadamosi ate three wraps of Amala he took from his parents house.. "Your future husband is a foodie when he's not fasting," Manny said, trying to stifle a grin.

"I thought he didn't like food like that," Kilahi replied, raising an eyebrow.

"Not when he likes the food," He clarified. "If the food tastes great, he might sneak up at night to eat it. I've seen him devour an entire pot by himself."

Kilahi's eyes widened in alarm, "It's a lie! This is definitely a pot of surprise." "The things you'll end up finding out about Gbadamosi will be too much to write a book about. It might end up being to a Netflix series - 'The Secret Life of Gbadamosi'." He revealed laughing and Kilahi giggled.

"Toor ..Where is he?" She asked.

"In the pool, swimming to burn off calories." Manny replied.

"This evening?" Kilahi asked.

Manny nodded. "Another disclaimer, your future husband is a fish too - he swims more than he walks."

Kilahi's expression turned worried. "And I don't even know how to swim." "Apart from preaching, one of the activities he loves doing is swimming. I'm sure you'll learn."

Just then, Gbadamosi appeared behind Manny, his wet shorts clinging to his body, his torso glistening with water droplets, and a towel casually draped around his neck. He waved at Kilahi. "Hey love."

"Jesus Choicest, put some clothes on!" Kilahi exclaimed, hastily covering her eyes. Gbadamosi burst out laughing.

"I didn't hear your voice, I thought he was on with Temi," He gave an excuse then he laughed at how cute she looked with her eyes closed. "Don't worry, I'm not naked - I have shorts on."

"Good evening," Kilahi replied, still shielding her eyes. "Manny, can you tell this my acquatic-husband-to-be to leave before my eyes will be flooded with unwanted thoughts." Kilahi peeked through her fingers. "Why will you be walking around with nothing but shorts on?"

Gbadamosi grinned, "It's my house, and I just finished swimming." He answered walking away and Manny smiled, "Besides, he's giving you a sneak peek of what's to come after married life." He chimed in and Gbadamosi's voice echoed, "Remind me again - how many days to 'I do'? And more importantly, how many days until I can convince Kilahi to join me in the pool?"

Kilahi didn't respond, still covering her eyes, "I told already, water is only sweet in the cup."

"After saying I do, your fiance on shorts would be the last thing you'll be complaining of," Manny teased watching Kilahi gasp and he laughed. "He's gone. You can stop being silly, Kilahi."

Kilahi dropped her hands,. "You call it silly, I just guarded my heart from vain imagination that won't glorify God... and my future husband's six-pack."

Manny's laughter echoed, "They're not up to six but I guess you'll be the judge of that when the time comes." "Toor. So, how's everything with my twinnie and nephew?" She asked and the smile on his face almost said it all.

"What do you want to know?"

"Everything."

Sefa paced left and right in her room she held her Bible as she paced. She was studying the book of Daniel and a particular chapter resonated in her. Specifically in second chapter of Daniel. Her phone rang for the fourth time but she ignored it. It was Teju. She was avoiding interruption but she knew if she didn't answer the call, he's going to continue distracting her.
